This is a home finger-prick blood test that measures PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen), a marker commonly used to assess prostate health. It suits men who want a private, at-home check, particularly if they have urinary symptoms.
1 biomarker as listed by Better2Know.
This test measures PSA from a finger-prick blood sample you take at home. PSA is produced by the prostate gland, and doctors commonly use it alongside other information, such as urinary symptoms, when assessing prostate health; it does not on its own confirm or rule out cancer.
Among the eight comparable PSA tests we track, this one is priced towards the higher end at £75, above competitors such as Medichecks (£45), Forth (£49), Selph (£59) and Thriva (£65), though still cheaper than Bluecrest Wellness's Prostate Cancer (PSA) test at £85 and less than half the price of Better2Know's own clinic-based version of this same test at £135.
It scores well across most criteria: clarity and documentation and Collection Convenience are both strong, since you can test at home with a result within one working day, and its value for money, while not the best in the group, is better than Better2Know's own clinic version of this test because the premium over the cheapest options is smaller here. It loses marks on Results and Follow-up because a doctor does not review results as standard.
This suits you if you want to check your PSA level privately at home, for example because of urinary symptoms or a family history of prostate problems, and you are happy to pay a little more than the cheapest options for a Better2Know kit. If price is the main concern, Check My Body Health's Prostate Health Self-Test costs £14.99, and Medichecks, Forth, Selph and Thriva all offer PSA tests between £45 and £65.
If you would rather have a clinician take the sample, Better2Know also offers this test at a clinic, though that version costs £135, considerably more than the home kit.
You take a finger-prick blood sample at home and post it to the lab, or attend a clinic instead for £135. Results are normally available within one working day of the sample reaching the laboratory, published to your secure online patient area, with Better2Know's Patient Services team notifying you once they are ready. Results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, and Better2Know suggests you consult a doctor if your PSA level is abnormal.
This home PSA test costs £75, above six of the eight comparable PSA tests we track, though still cheaper than Bluecrest Wellness's £85 version and Better2Know's own £135 clinic test for the same marker. It uses an at-home finger-prick sample with a result within one working day, but a doctor does not review results as standard. Check My Body Health offers a similar self-test for £14.99.
